Passover Pb J Flourless Almond Butter Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl until well-blended.
• Use a teaspoon to scoop out a smallish amount.
• Roll into balls and place on parchment-covered baking sheet.
• Carefully press each ball down with a fingertip - balls are fragile, try to keep them from splitting open or you'll lose your jam.
• Balls should resemble a bird's nest.
• With another, clean spoon (we always keep our jams pareve and nut-free - you never know who might be stopping by!), scoop 1/4 to 1/2 a teaspoon of jam or jelly and slide it into the "nest".
• Repeat until all "nests" are full.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes.
• Allow to cool & solidify before peeling from parchment.
• Finish cooling on wire rack before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F Lightly grease (or line with parchment) two baking sheets.
• Blend the almond paste, sugar, and salt until the mixture becomes uniformly crumbly; this is best done in a stand mixer.
• Add the egg whites gradually, while mixing, to make a smooth paste.
• Stir in the flavorings.
• Scoop the dough by heaping tablespoons onto the prepared pans.
• Sprinkle the cookies heavily with confectioners' sugar, then use three fingers to press an indentation into the center of each cookie.
• Bake the cookies for 20 to 25 minutes, until they're brown around the edges. Remove them from the oven, and let them cool right on the pan.
